I have an old Samsung 10" tablet that I have used Navionics Boating app on for years. I DO NOT have cellular service nor is wi-fi turned on, but the tablet works perfectly. Somehow the internal GPS on that Samsung Tablet does the job. As I travel in my boat it keeps up and it just works! The battery in the Samsung Tablet is getting rather worn out so I thought, "Hey, I will retire the Samsung Tablet and use my iPad." WRONG! I have been told that I have to BUY an external GPS module like a Garmin or Bad Elf to use, OR have cellular service on my iPad. WTH??? My $119 tablet works, but my $350 iPad won't????
Has anybody found a way to accomplish this on an iPad WITHOUT buying the extra GPS module?
